I am due to start uni in September, and we have also been approved to adopt just two weeks ago.
We were told by sw and adopters who we've spoken to a while ago not to put our life on hold, and that I should continue with uni application so I did.
So at the moment were in the period of waiting to be approached with a potential match. Part of me says I should decline my uni offer as we might be matched soon, and the other part of me says to start uni then take a break once were matched. I know that if you are pregnant you can take a year out of the course ( I know people who have done it, and it says so in the registration pack) however I just wondered, when I approach them about me potentially leaving as adoption a child, what the chances are of them treating my circumstances equally to if I was pregnant. Has anyone else been in a situation where they have been treated differently or the same? Am I even making sense?
